How can you tell if your water pump go bad?

I presume you mean car water pump? If the water pump is faulty the car will over heat and the temperature gauge will go up. Make sure that there is enough coolant in the radiator, the radiator or the hose pipe is not leaking and the radiator cap is not faulty, as all of these faults can cause overheating. Once you have excluded these then you can blame the water pump.

Can air in a home water system cause frequent water pressure surges when running the faucets?

Probably not. It sounds more like a faulty water pump, water tank, or well. Most likely the water pump is directly at fault, but faulty tank pressure, bad electrical supply, or a bad well can cause the pump to do that. Especially if the surges are repetitive in nature, your pump is short-cycling. With lots of research, you might be able to narrow down the problem.
